CUB-O-REE 2026
MISSION: MARS

Sandscrest Scout Reservation   |    Aug 7-9, 2026

At MISSION: MARS CUBOREE 2026, Scouts become the first explorers sent to the red plant only to discover that  critical systems are failing.  Working in teams they'll take on exciting challenges to restore oxygen, recover water, navigate meteor threats, and reconnect with Earth. This isn't just a campout. It's a mission. As crews race to stabilize their Mars base, every scout plays a role in preparing for one final moment: The Launch Window that will bring them home. 

Will your scout rise to the challenge and become part of the Mars survival crew?
 

In addition to the Cub-O-Ree, Basic Adult Leader Outdoor Orientation (BALOO) Training will also be available this weekend. Leaders can register here to complete the training and also participate in the Cub-O-Ree activities.
